Chinese Astrology
The Chinese Zodiac consists of a 12-year cycle, each year of which is named after a different animal that imparts distinct characteristics to its year. Many Chinese believe that the year of a person's birth is the primary factor in deciding that person's personality traits, physical and mental attributes and degree of success and happiness throughout his/her lifetime.
The Chinese New Year begins with the second new moon after the winter solstice, which occurs between Jan 21 and Feb 19.
